Memorial Day B.B.Q.

For Memorial Day, the Wyllies invited us over for a family B.B.Q. It was held on their beautiful rural property, complete with chickens, a horse stable across the street, and plenty of places for the kids to play!


Isabella and her cousin Abby enjoying some delicious fare.

Playing on the tire swing...

...And later taking a dip in the pool!


Owen was fascinated by the chickens...and maybe a little terrified too.


Isabella's Uncle Houston has a younger brother named Sam. Samuel, her dad, caught this picture of them walking to the horse stables and he groaned. At 7-years old, Isabella is twitterpated!

Owen & Iris checking out the horses with dad.

Ava getting up close thanks to her Aunt Rachel.

Iris keeping a safe distance.

When they returned Sam was startled to find me sprawled out on the lawn. I don't care that I looked like a beached whale! I needed to lay down!

Abby & Isabella enjoying a carefree evening.

My beautiful Bella on the jungle gym with her cousin Mason.

Samuel in hog heaven riding the Wyllie's ATV.

Ava jumped at the chance to ride too. Mom wouldn't look.


All good things must come to an end. By nightfall, everyone was exhausted, full, and plenty happy. What a better way to conclude the night then to sit by the fire-pit and eat chips?

We hope you had a Happy Memorial Day too!
